Last blog I left off at the start of the public days of BrickFair. Nothing particularly special happened on either day. I did, however, get a delicious fish. Recapping on the weekend, I told myself not to spend any money at BrickFair this year because I have other priorities to spend my money on. I successfully did not spend any money on LEGO. However, taking into account the wings, taco bell trips, gas, and fish dinners, I spent over $100. Woops. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ At the LEGO Group Q&A at Brick
Guess I'll make a blog for once about my BrickFair adventures Day 1: Didn't really do anything at the con besides check in and help set up sound system Did not bring any MOCs. Bailed on the con to go take car pics (what else is new) and get free buffalo wings courtesy of my northern virginia friends Day 2: Did a seminar that I did not plan for ahead of time. Winged the whole thing and according to some audience members I nailed it. Starbucks "chill sesh" with Beyond the Brick and Kevin Hi
Hey guys so in my further ventures of cleaning out "old" stuff I've been accumulating over the years I've got some unopened LEGO sets that I was looking to see if anyone had any interest in. Please note I'm not selling any of these yet and might not any time soon. I'd just like to know what any of you would be willing to pay for these. All are brand new in their packaging. 40084 Accessory Pack (x2) - 2013 Exclusive Tahu Mask - 2014 1668 Special Offer Trial Size - 1992 9440 Venoma
Anybody interested in playing tomorrow night? I might make it a regular thing on Sunday evenings. 9pm, feel free to come early or later. 173.72.194.6:27015 ^ there's the IP. There will be an invite thing to everyone in the BZPower Steam group. Is mvm_mannhattan and mvm_rottenburg good?
Who's up for a preplanned TF2 event on the BZPower server I'm hosting? How about Saturday evening/night EST? Server IP has been changed, for those who have to old IP saved: 108.44.211.182:27015 Hit me up on Steam if you're interested, as I'll have to make sure the server is set up and able to handle enough people. Give map suggestions in the comments, and let me know if you want to participate (or if a different time/date would work better for you.)
Title mostly self-explanatory. I'm considering hosting a BZPower TF2 server. Anyone interested? It'd be on the east coast (Washington DC area), so for those a significant distance from there, be mindful that you wouldn't have the best ping. Some things I need to know: First of all, who is interested? Should I leave it running 24/7? I have no problem with doing so, just want to know though. Should it be password protected? Should there be occasional scheduled "events" that would be planned a
I don't blog enough I've been really inactive on BZPower lately My birthday is this month 20 days until Doctor Who 50th anniversary I got a job at Brickset as a news editor and database administrator today I left my position as administrator at Brickipedia for a while for various reasons I need a new phone (Nexus 5 pweaaaseee) I found this really catchy song by We Came As Romans I still don't understand why boys like My Little Pony Halloween was boring this year by the way Is it Christ
Look the policy changed! So I can actually link to sites like Facebook without having to annoy Black Six on AIM now! Well yeah so LINKS: Facebook (mostly posts about my personal life, but some LEGO-related stuff too) Twitter (same as Facebook) Tumblr (mostly just bands and fandom stuff) Instagram (my boring self and pictures of where I go) Oh and I changed my blog name
So I spent all day playing the closed beta of Legends of Chima Online with some friends from Brickipedia. It's really fun and addicting and glitchy. Anyways, check this topic if you want beta access! http://www.bzpower.com/board/index.php?showtopic=10010
Well, as you can see, I'm mostly inactive here on BZP anymore. Aside from BioniLUG, I've barely read a single topic recently, nor have I posted much at all. I guess it's three main causes for that... First, I really do not care one bit about Bionicle anymore, and it seems that any time people get the chance, they get all dramatic with "I guess this is the end", "I will wait for its return", etc. When I see that, I try not to be rude, but all I wish to say is "Grow up and move on". I know it's
I'm proud to announce a new network for LEGO fans and sites (primarily wikis, which is all we host at the time, and plan to host): Brickimedia! Brickipedia, the popular LEGO wiki hosted on Wikia and several other LEGO Wikis have moved to Brickimedia by today, completing the current network of the sites. I did a lot of work with some people I just met when starting this project to set up the server and the wikis. If you're curious, the interface and experience may be similar to what you know on
As many of you have likely noticed, The Ninjago Wiki and The Chima Wiki are not accessible. The reason for this downtime is that we just bought a brand new server, with much more RAM, bandwidth, and space! The downtime wasn't planned to be this long, so I wanted to give you an update if you don't follow any of the sites' social network pages. When the sites come back up though, everything will be the same, and the site will be much faster than before.
First off, Happy Easter everyone! Go eat chocolate and watch bunnies even though that has nothing to do with the resurrection of Christ. Also, tomorrow is my 6th anniversary of joining BZPower! Why does it feel like it's been longer than 6 years?
So apparently my purchase of a membership isn't in the system, according to Black Six. Thank goodness I have the PayPal order receipt to prove I bought that. I'm not going to re-purchase something like this, let alone something I have to continuously pay for every year. I hope this gets resolved soon. Has anybody else had problems like this with the BZPower store?
This weekend I had the privilege of going to KidsFest in Richmond. Even with my pilonidal cyst making it annoying to walk or sit, I had a good time. Sometime once I finish Toy Fair coverage, I'll put up coverage on The Chima Wiki. With permission from Black Six, since I reached my Flickr upload limit, here are all of my photos on The Chima Wiki's Facebook: http://fb.me/1x9zhik8M The Chima section was really fun. It seemed quite popular, though I suck with Speedorz (I'm practicing though), bu
So I've been having this killer pain in my tailbone, and it's gotten so bad I can't walk or sit without pain. I went to an urgent care center and they diagnosed it as a pilonidal cyst. So long story short, I might be out of school for a while, or at least gym. If it worsens, it'll require surgery. .__. Also I'm working on Toy Fair 2013 recapping for The Chima Wiki. Stay tuned for that, though this recent complication may get in the way of that.
So there's a beaver tribe now, in a video I can't link to, though it is on The Chima Wiki's video hosting site. Here they are. Also, I got a much better image of Plomar. Oh and a REALLY good image of Furty the Fox and G'Loona the gorilla, never before seen on TV or in sets (except Toy Fair). What do you guys think?
